Bennett Middle School Reviews

Although we are barely a Month into the School year, my daughter seems to be adjusting well to Middle School life.
We had fears about her attending BMS due to the "rumors on the Streets" but so far, so good.
She seems to be in a good group and her teachers are getting them going on the right foot. This is a huge, transitionary year that will set the stage for their Middle School experience.
I / we are hoping for a GREAT year!!
